Tribulation of Myriad Races

Chapter 948: Go Out Looking For Teacher (1)

Inside the ancient city.

Su Yu continued killing death spirits. Every now and then, he would encounter some people who had gone outdoors because they could no longer withstand the death qi in their buildings. He killed those people as well.

He was able to gain quite a lot of ancient city medallions from this. He wondered what he could do with these medallions. Sure, they were slightly helpful in resisting death qi and death spirits. The high-level medallions could even control the weak death spirits slightly. But the effects were minimal.

He had even managed to get his hands on a sixteenth-ring medallion. It could only slightly control some Cloudbreach death spirits but it was useless against Mountainsea death spirits. That was the best ancient city medallion he had at the moment.

He wondered if the better medallions would have better effects. The three Sunmoon death spirits would appear near him every now and then. They looked more and more irritated and they were starting to kill more and more visitors after failing to find the killer of the death spirits. More and more death qi filled the city.

As time passed, the city became even more silent than before. The streets were devoid of people and even the residents were hiding away. Fortunately for these residents, the death spirits would leave them alone when they were indoors. But their safety wouldn't be guaranteed outdoors since the death spirits were getting more and more irritated.

Su Yu was probably the only living being still roaming outdoors in the entire city. He spent some time roaming the streets. Not a single living being could be found outdoors. Only a small number of the visitors had opted to convert into a resident. Clearly, most of the visitors were still waiting for the gates to reopen.

Unless more Sunmoon death spirits appeared, the city gates would reopen on time. As for Su Yu, he still wasn't strong enough to kill the Mountainsea death spirits. To be precise, he could kill the early-stage Mountainsea death spirits, but that wouldn't help since that would only spawn some middle-stage Mountainsea death spirits. He had to kill late-stage Mountainsea death spirits for more Sunmoon death spirits to appear.

But he was still not strong enough to kill late-stage Mountainsea death spirits even through sneak attacks. He had to use all his strength, including a drop of blood essence if he wanted to do so. But that would create too big of a ruckus and it wouldn't be beneficial for him.

He was constantly worried that someone would notice what he was doing. For example, the mayor. Was the mayor spying on him? He did hear the demands made by the people outside the city, but he wasn't able to hear too much of the conversation. But it didn't matter. He only needed to know that some experts had already arrived outside the city.

He continued roaming the streets while deep in thought. Sunmoon experts must have arrived. He wondered if Invincibles would arrive as well. He wasn't too worried about Sunmoons, but Invincibles might be able to see through his disguise as a death spirit.

"Yeah, I can't provoke Invincibles."

His current disguise was accomplished through a combination of his death qi and character. Sunmoons wouldn't be able to see through his disguise, but a late-stage Sunmoon could probably feel something through touch.

There was no chance he could hide his disguise from Invincibles. Thus, he had to be careful lest he caused even Invincibles to appear. That would be very troublesome.

"If the city remains sealed for more than three days, Invincibles might start appearing. Thus, I need to avoid killing Mountainsea death spirits."

Su Yu started weighing his options. Just because he could do something didn't mean he should do it. For example, extending the time the city was sealed. He had to give those Sunmoons some hope. If the city was only sealed for three days, the young geniuses would most likely still be alive. Thus, the Sunmoons would not lose hope.

"Is there any way I can get all those Sunmoons killed?"

Su Yu sank into thought. He could do something absolutely crazy and run before the Invincibles arrived. If he could scheme a few Sunmoons to death, he would definitely climb to the top of the Heaven Index. With that, he no longer needed to worry that his actions would be reflected through the index every time he made a significant kill.

But scheming Sunmoons to death wouldn't be easy. It would be extremely difficult. Su Yu shook his head and decided to not take unnecessary risks. With time, he would naturally gain enough strength to kill them himself. There was no need to rush things. But he certainly wouldn't mind killing more of the young geniuses trapped in the city.

In fact, he had just received some heavenly source qi from the young genius he killed not long ago. Sure, he considered heavenly source qi garbage, but it was still better than nothing.

He had been using heavenly source qi at an extremely terrifying rate. At the moment, he had less than three hundred portions left. Before entering the city, he still had around five hundred portions.

"Are they going to keep hiding indoors?"

Su Yu sighed with annoyance. Weren't they all very cocky earlier? Before the city was sealed, they had been completely fearless even when there were already a lot of death spirits on the streets. Why were they so scared now?

Where was Mo Duona?

Where was Dao Cheng?

An Mintian?

Tianduo?

Why were these top geniuses hiding indoors?

Su Yu had completely neglected the fact that he had also been hiding just like them before discovering a way to transform into a death spirit. For him, his concealment was a tactical move, unlike the others who were hiding out of cowardice. They were different.

He wouldn't be able to gain more rewards without killing more people. And there weren't any benefits to killing death spirits. If he could get heavenly rewards from killing death spirits, he would have started doing so long ago. Unfortunately, apart from some ancient city medallions, he couldn't get anything from killing the death spirits.

Of course, he could also get some death spirit blood essence from them. And their blood essence was quite expensive. But it was also quite useless for him. He couldn't extract any heavenly source qi from it as the death spirits did not even have a body forging art.

Yes. When extracting heavenly source qi from the blood essence of other races, Su Yu had to do so through the body forging arts of those races instead of direct extraction. Nevertheless, his brand new death character did manage to grow from all the death spirits he killed.

He was also constantly keeping his new breathing technique active, constantly working on strengthening his body. At this rate, he could probably complete his twenty-third body forging in a few days.

His plan had always been to complete seventy-two body forgings in the Allheaven Battlefield. Not much time had passed and he had achieved about one-third of his target. He was not about to return to the Human Realm anytime soon.

"Looks like it won't be that easy to complete seventy-two body forgings."

The more body forgings he completed, the harder it would be to complete more. Each forging would exhaust a large amount of resources as well. He had completely underestimated the difficulty of seventy-two body forgings before this. At this time, he moved past an occupied building. The door was slightly open.

Su Yu readied his saber. Who was this? Was this person losing patience and trying to gather some information outside? He wouldn't have any way of entering if the door remained shut. But with the door open, he could enter and cut the person down.

A tiger head stretched out of the opening made by the partially opened door. Su Yu was on the verge of attacking when he noticed that this was a familiar tiger. This...seemed to be Qin Fang's mount.

The tiger was looking around carefully. He noticed Su Yu as well, but he didn't seem bothered as Su Yu seemed like a weak death spirit. A fearful and helpless expression could be seen on his face. This was the kind of expression the little furball would make whenever Su Yu forced him to do something he didn't want to.

Su Yu was left speechless. It was clear what was happening. This was Qin Fang's mount. He probably didn't have the courage to do this himself so he made his mount do it instead. Sure enough, Qin Fang's head stretched out beside the tiger not long after. He was currently wearing a black helmet. After looking around, he exhaled in relief. Good. There were no powerful death spirits around.

The building was starting to feel unbearable for him. The death qi was too thick here. Sure, he was deep enough in the city that not even Sunmoon death spirits could forcefully enter his building, but the death qi was getting too dense for him to handle.

He wanted to go to the outer rings, but there, the Sunmoon death spirits would be able to break into his chosen building. Meanwhile, there was too much death qi in the inner ring buildings. He had the urge to find a good place to bury himself instead.

After taking a deep breath with his head outside, he cursed. Even the death qi outside was so thick. It wasn't much better than his building. But at the very least, it felt less stuffy outside.

When his gaze landed on Su Yu, he cursed yet again.

"Damn these dumb death spirits."

Those dumb death spirits were too annoying. He couldn't kill them. He couldn't even give them a beating to vent his anger since these death spirits were filled with nothing but death qi. Killing them would only bring him even more trouble.

Su Yu glanced at Qin Fang and noted the black armor Qin Fang was wearing. That was most likely an earth weapon. Unfortunately, the armor seemed to be suffering greatly from corrosion as dark spots could be seen all over it.

No wonder Qin Fang was taking this risk. He was probably at his limit. But the city was still sealed. Where could he go? Sure, there were less death qi in the outer rings, but it wasn't really safe there since the Sunmoon death spirits would be there the moment they sensed the presence of a living being there.

"Should I give this fellow some heavenly source qi? But how should I do that?"

He didn't want to see Qin Fang dead, but in his current disguise, it wasn't convenient for him to do anything. The Qin Family was probably not as well supplied with heavenly source qi.

In fact, the heavenly source qi in the Human Realm wasn't even as bountiful as what one could find in the realms of the demonic beasts. A few hundred years ago, humanity was forced to greatly exhaust the heavenly source qi within the Human Realm to gain more strength and chase the invaders away. But because of that, several holy lands in the Human Realm were ruined.

Ultimately, only two holy lands remained, occupied by the War Shrine and Knowledge Seeking Realm respectively. And the two remaining holy lands weren't even that big. They only produced enough to supply the young geniuses with body forging and some heavenly source fruits. It was likely that Qin Fang wouldn't have that much heavenly source qi on him.

Meanwhile, Su Yu had found ten heavenly source fruits in Jiu Xuan's storage ring even though she had used up a lot of them during her time in the city. There was no doubt that Qin Fang was having a hard time. But his tiger was having an even harder time. The tiger had been corroded by so much death qi that his snow-white fur had turned completely black.

Su Yu could see that this tiger was at least a seventh-stage Cloudbreach. This tiger was from the flying sky tiger race, a top 100 race. He wondered if Qin Fang had subdued this tiger himself or if the Qin Family had helped with that.

"What are you looking at, you dumb death spirit?"

Qin Fang was busy taking some fresh air when he noticed a death spirit staring at him. He was already in a bad mood, so he shouted at the death spirit.

Su Yu blanked out slightly. Did that just happen? Fine. He had been considering donating some heavenly source qi to this fellow, but this fellow seemed quite energetic. There was no need for him to help.

Thus, Su Yu turned and started moving away. Qin Fang was stunned. The death spirit was leaving? Was scolding actually effective against them?

Whatever. He tossed the matter to the back of his mind and continued taking in fresh air. After a while, he sighed and shut the door. The death qi outside was almost as dense as the death qi inside his building. That was so pointless. He had no choice but to grit his teeth and continue his suffering. He couldn't help but wonder if that shit-stirring Su Yu was still in the city.
